I became a mage and was recruited by the lord as his son-in-law

Everything that magic grants comes at a price.

This is how Beth feels about the battle.

While transmitting their own will, the saints can also feel the will of all living beings. At the moment the battle ended, Beth felt the will of the Fire Demon.

Ten thousand years of destruction, from the moment it was born, it had no choice.

If it could not think, none of this would matter, but it was not a burning stone, so this power, this rage, this fire, became the source of its pain.

Beth has always been curious about why dragons, as naturally powerful creatures, have the will to become mortals. What do they desire?

This fire demon brought Beth the answer.

As long as you learn to think and gain wisdom, you will inevitably seek a question: What is the meaning of life?

The meaning of the Balrogs is determined by nature, they can think, but they are locked by magic. Wisdom should be the beginning of everything, but for the Balrogs, wisdom ends at the beginning, and wisdom cannot change the violence brought to them by magic.

They can't give up magic, because magic sustains their lives. Giving up magic means death.

Perhaps, this is the sea of ​​faith given to the Dragon King. Those ultimate monsters who gave up their lives or died in battle are longing for justice from the world.

They are not a perpetually angry stone.

Beth picked up the piece of the fire demon's blood. It was a small gift given by the monsters to the warrior who brought them liberation. If she ate it, it would be possible to kill the monster.

The knight behind her handed a cloak to Beth, and Beth used the cloak to wrap the gift.

Turning around and looking at these knights, they had tired faces and white hair. This was the price of passing power to the saints, and it would take them several years to recover.

Half of them were from the church, and the other half were from the Rose Society. They were supposed to be two enemy camps, but now they were arm in arm, celebrating their victory together.

Beth was happy about such scenes. This was the reason why the saints threw themselves into darkness, for the sake of the future. Such scenes could flourish everywhere.

But she also felt a little sad. Even after going through countless hardships, such a scene still could not be realized with certainty.

Huafan, carrying the sadness of the past, wants to ask the world for justice, so that people now and in the future can awaken their original desire for a better life.

The saints, wrapped up in everything in the present, are going to the future to find an answer, an answer that will bring true liberation.

Mortals will be taken to the tombstone by those in the past, but what about saints? What is the ending of saints?

Beth couldn't help but peek into fate again. There were still thousands of possible endings, but no definite answer.

……

Beth has loaded all 2000 tons of gems onto the cargo ship.

The knights on the ship and the knights on the shore waved goodbye. What separated them was the naturally condensed sea. They waved goodbye to the distance.

The next time they meet, it will be on the battlefield. What separates them will be their respective camps and their own ideologies. At that time, they will wield swords for war.

On this return trip, the knights were no longer able to provide strength for Beth, but fortunately the saints themselves were not weaklings. It was just that the fleet was a little slower, and two weeks was enough to return to the mainland.

……

In the castle of the royal capital, Bennett was studying runes to deal with Hannibal. He used magic to condense high temperature at one point, then isolated it with magic, and wrapped it with a layer of water.

The magic power that maintained the high temperature was dissipated, and the magic power that isolated the temperature was dissipated. The water boiled and the experiment was successful.

The matter transformed by magic will disappear as the magic dissipates, but the physical phenomena produced by magic will not disappear with the dissipation of magic.

Magic power turns into matter, and this matter is still magic power in essence, but the magic power is converted into heat. This is a change of form and will not be reversed naturally.

The next thing is the difficult part. Mervyn has implemented this spell before. His ideas are somewhat similar to Bennett's, but his implementation method is completely different from Bennett's.

Bennett had to rewrite the combination of runes.

……

In the northwest of the empire, the church controls a large number of cities here. Of course, their highest position is only that of an earldom.

However, with the earldom as the place for selecting knight seeds and the viscountdom as the place for cultivating seeds, their power is not only not weak, but it even surpasses the power of the grand duke and the king.

There are 50 God-givens in the country, 40 from the King (all killed in battle), 100 from the Lion Family, 70 from the Church, 80 from the Giant Wolf Duke, 60 from the Rose Territory, and the remaining are distributed among other grand dukes and some marquises.

……

In the Viscount's territory, there is a small church with a pointed earthen wall and a wooden cross on the roof. In the small courtyard of the church, an instructor is supervising the children's training.

Suddenly a carrier pigeon attracted his attention and also attracted the children's attention. The children's movements began to become distorted, and they even started whispering to each other.

The instructor caught the pigeon and shouted to the group of naughty kids:

"Keep training, don't be lazy."

The children instantly quieted down, and their movements became uniform again, but they could not stop looking at the knight.

The knight smiled and stopped blaming the kids. It was normal for kids to have poor concentration, as that was how he had spent his childhood.

"Wait a minute, let me see what's in the letter."

The children gathered around in an instant, waiting for the knight to read out the contents of the letter.

The knight did not need to hide the contents of the letter. This village was fabricated and was full of puppets of the church. There was no need to worry about the contents of the letter being leaked.

The knight unfolded the letter and said slowly:

"Well, come on, let me see, well... well/!!!"

As the tone of voice rose, the originally leisurely expression froze instantly. After a short downtime, the knight's expression changed drastically, and his voice became a little solemn:

"Pack your things, quickly, quickly, quickly, the orcs are coming, children, we have to evacuate quickly."

The children scattered instantly. They did not understand the instructor's fear, but they were not afraid of being able to leave the Viscount's territory. Instead, they felt it was a novelty.

But no matter what, the children are trying their best to pack up.

Only one child came to the knight. He was Randy, a boy whose entire family was killed by orcs. He always got up early in the morning before everyone woke up, went outside, and raised his hands vigorously towards the west.

He said that Allah had given him divine power, with which he could destroy the orcs.

"Brother Instructor, I will help you fight the orcs. I have the divine power given to me by God."

The instructor gently picked up the child and let him sit on his shoulders:

"Okay, okay, when you grow up, I will take you there myself. You are still young now, and you will be taken away by wild monkeys on the battlefield."

"Well, when I grow up I won't be afraid of wild monkeys anymore."

The knight jumped onto the roof and took out a huge bell.

"Here, you knock."

Randy took the hammer and smashed the bell with all his might. The sound of the bell was not loud, but it was enough to tell the God-given Knights to assemble.

The Knight jumps off the roof and puts Randy down:

"You should go back and pack your things. We will be evacuating soon."

"Ah."

Randy also entered the house. The instructor looked at the jumping figure in the distance. It was the God-given knight arranged by the church after Beth left.
